Munro keeps ‘Cats ahead in numbers game

WILLIAMSPORT — Austin Munro is an important part of the Williamsport boys basketball team.

He just doesn’t wear a uniform.

The 18-year-old senior was diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy, a neuromuscular disease, at birth. He has been in a wheelchair since he was 2, but that has only kept him from being physically active in sports.

“I really haven’t thought of the disease as a big deal,” Munro said. “It’s never held me back.”
